    And I think that a parent company should have the latitude to set employment rules for its franchises.

    I just honestly hate Durant. He comes across as a huge dbag, he is a bit of a pussy and IDK if I would want the ball being taken out of Dame and LA's hands in the 4th. I think it would cause a rift. We have a good core, we just need to keep building around it. Kinda like the Spurs.

    He kind of has that fake nice guy persona that you can see crack once in a while, like it did recently, and with the "tough shit" bullshit.

    He reminds me so much of A-Rod before his downfall. Guy would always be thinking about his indorsements and Brand before he says anything. They both feel like Robots who are coached many many times on what to say before they say anything.

    I never thought he was all that 'nice'... that was media driven and contrived.

    I know we are division rivals, but I would much rather have OKC beat the Clips tonight. I just don't fear OKC competing with us for the division lead.

    At times, Westbrook is the greatest defense against Westbrook.

    I definitely agree with that, but this Clipper trapping looks just as effective against Westrbrick's attempts at the pick offense.

    Good!

    Personally, I hope the Clips win (I just puked a little bit). I want to just make sure we can have as much cushion just in case we slip a little bit... coming into a tough part of the schedule (On the road against the east... but it's 5 games in 7 days with 2 sets of B2B's. That's the tough part).

    Yep. It's been far too long since a banner has gone up in the Rose Garden........a division title sure would be nice, even if we are seeded under a team like the Clippers.
